Louie and I worked together for 22 years, never at the same branch. We would see each other at annual meetings and always found time to sit down and catch up on "what's goin' on". He was as genuine as they come and I will always remember him with a smile on his face. RIP Louie....you will be missed. Condolences to the family and all that were close to him.

Louie…. Forever you will be in our hearts. We are saddened that you are no longer with us, gone way too soon! Denny and I are so grateful that you blessed our lives with your gracious, warm soul. Extremely thankful that we had a great visit with you only a short month ago. You are and always be our best friend. We are thankful for your forever friendship. Always there for Denny, for me. When we needed anything.. you were always the first one to say “on my way”. All that we love deeply, becomes part of us. Too little moments you stayed with us, but what an imprint your footprints have left in our hearts. Memories exist out of time, they have no beginning or end. There is no goodbyes for us Louie… wherever you are, you will always be in our hearts. Rest in divine peace Louie, we love you, always.

With great sadness I hear of this news, Louie you were a bright smile that lit up a room along with your hearty laugh.
Our past connection was high school football, most recently at Coach Majerovichs June birthday bash then for the months after
the OP football team get together at the Powerhouse restaurant.
Your fun attitude, sincere interest to anything and all we'd reminisce about around the table having pint' will be sorely missed!
Rest in Peace

Louie I am deeply saddened that you have left us so soon. I have great memories of the fun times we had working at Crothers/Toromont in the early years and the friendship we developed. I will always remember our snowmobile trips up to Parry Sound and the laughs we had. I was so looking forward to getting together this summer. You will be missed "my brother from another mother. " May you rest in peace with Donna. Until we meet again I will cherish those memories. Melanie and family my heart felt condolences to you all.

My sincere condolences. Knew Louie for a long time, from the day he started in Hamilton branch and through his many jobs and years with Toromont. What I’ll always remember is his smile, he always had a big smile and positive outlook. Sorry I won’t be able to pay my respects in person, as I’m out-of-the-country.

Dear Family and Rose. We were shocked to learn of Lou’s passing - my husband played hockey with Lou and when we were in the airport last week we heard a larger than life voice calling out to Terry. It was Lou. We were staying in the same resort and were looking forward to sharing a beverage with Lou and Rose during the week. Rose .. we are so sorry for your loss and the pain you are suffering. I wished you had have let us know what you were doing through and we would have gone to be with you until your sister arrived. To Lou’s children.. one of the only photos on his FB page was him holding your child. He looked so happy! I know your family has suffered great loss and we are so sorry.

We are still shocked. We remember spending hours together watching football in our basement or around cars and more recently being with our grandchildren. Our grandson was so excited to see the heavy equipment. Thanks for stopping by Louie. We will always remember the good times.
